A loan helped to buy basic supplies to sell tortillas, such as corn, a griddle, firewood, and lime.


Blanca Gloria's story

Blanca has decided to request another loan, because she needs resources to strengthen her new business. She will invest in the purchase of basic supplies to sell tortillas, such as corn, a griddle, firewood, and lime. Thus she will be able to meet existing demand for this product.

Thanks to the previous investment, her business selling fruit and vegetables generated greater profits, but she has stopped doing that. Six months ago, she opened a new business selling tortillas. She learned with help from her sister. Blanca works selling tortillas Monday to Saturday, from 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon.

Blanca's family group has not changed.
